You don't think people would go on about my looks if I was No. 500 in the world instead of No.12, do you? Anyway, as I keep telling everyone, you can't blame me for looking like this on purpose.

I just play for fun.

People don’t get to see the unglamourous side.

There’s time for a boyfriend in my life. But he would have to be understanding. He would have to understand that often I will be travelling and playing.

Well, I’m playing for the fans so whenever they come and ask for autographs I always try to give it to everybody because I’m out there for the people.

It’s true I always try to be as seductive as possible but I wouldn’t be here if I couldn’t play tennis.

At this year’s Open, I’ll have five boyfriends.

I think it’s really important for me not to forget where I came from.

When I play, I feel like in a theatre, why should I look ugly then, because I’m a tennis player?

I think that tennis is a lady’s sport, so we should look out there like ladies.
